  1. A \(2,3,0\) respectively
  2. B \(2,3,6\) respectively
  3. C \(2,3,4\) respectively
  4. D \(2,3,1\) respectively
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2,3,1\) respectively

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{NaCl}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{Cl}^{-}(a q)\) van't Hoff factor, \(i=2\) \(\mathrm{BaCl}_{2}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Ba}^{2+}(a q)+2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-}(a q), i=3\) Glucose does not undergo dissociation or association hence, \(i=1\)
